72 Hours in Mongkok (MachinaMaker and Dio)

[Dio the Awesome]

Alright, in case you didn't see the Interest check for this. Here's what's going down.

An action packed cop vs gang shoot 'em up in the middle of Mongkok, the most densely populated city in the world. In case you missed it the first time around. Here is the style I'm going for.

Kung Fu Action!

There will be plenty of guns too, don't worry.

So, what does that mean for you? Well, you're going to be a cop, fighting to apprehend a group of ruthless gang members. The story will take place over the course of three days. I will be providing time in the posts to keep appropriate pacing. There will also be the opportunity for flashbacks, if you so wish. Any questions, just ask.

Remember, this will be taking place in Hong Kong, so for the section on ethnicity, be sure to state if you're an islander, or a mainlander (or possibly from another country entirely). This will affect how some people interact with you. (Mainlanders are generally from the villages, and speak a slightly different language than islanders, so it may be hard to understand them, unless you've had training. Most cops will be able to speak both.)

Rank, please place your police rank, and what section you work with. (Intelligence, patrolman, etc.)

That's the only one for now.

[MachinaMaker]

Name: Jon Win
Age: 28
Gender: Male
Ethnicity: Islander
Languages: Chinese, Japanese, English
Rank: Inspector
Section: Organized Crime

Appearance: Around five foot seven, he's not extremely tall, but he doesn't need to be. Intense hazel eyes and a stern expression make him intimidating enough, things carved onto his face by years on the force.
Biography: Jon never thought he'd be a cop when he was younger. He grew up in a different lifestyle, born and raised in the street. This led him to be tough as nails, even at an early age and was forced to know how to defend himself. He became such a good fighter that at sixteen he was performing in illegal street fights. But when he lost a fight he should have won, it was his brother who paid the price. Jon stopped fighting in street fights and applied to become a police officer. Soon he made Inspector and applied for organized crime, hoping to take down the local gang rings that ran the city.
Personality: Serious, cynical, but with a strange sort of humor that makes him likable even to those who hate him.

I've accepted your profile. I will let you know, I put this OOC up some time ago. Hopefully this will spark some more interest though! ^.^

[MachinaMaker]

Yeah, I realized that after I posted it. But hopefully you're right. I'm so up for doing this thing. I mean, John Woo movies are my favorite. You should see my video cabinet. This is my type of roleplay.

[Dio the Awesome]

If not, we could format it like a 1v1, if you're up for that.

[MachinaMaker]

Sure, that works for me. What, like a grudge against two specific people? A cop and this gangster/hitman? Maybe they could have been brothers, or friends when they both lived on the same street as a kid, but somehow went seperate ways. Whatever you want to do, just throwing out ideas. I'm fine for a 1x1

[Dio the Awesome]

I'll get the IC later up today, and I'll get fate to move both of the threads to the 1v1 section.

[Dio the Awesome]

MachinaMaker you still around?

Fate moved the topic to 1v1 for us. I like the idea of the cop and villain being friends who grew apart. I'll get to posting the intro after you respond to this. :p

[MachinaMaker]

Sorry, thought this thing had died. Yeah, I'm ready.

[Digital Muse]

Darn....I wanted to joing this too. Too late to jump in?

[Dio the Awesome]

You would be too late, had this RP ever started. I've gotten several people interested, just not several people interested at the same time. If you wish to do a 1v1, I would happily put up an intro thread.

[Digital Muse]

Sure I could maybe do that. Got a general plot idea in mind? Bringing down a criminal king-pin. Stopping a drug shipment?

Trying to take over a rival gang? Spies for various countries looking to steal the same scientist for their respective countries?

[Dio the Awesome]

I think I'll leave the detective work up to you. *wink*

I will be playing the evil guys, you will be the police force. You can control up to three detectives (or more if you want. Even one is fine.) I will control the (insert number here) of the main villains. I am very flexible as to the level of control you have over minor characters. I am more concerned with interesting story over ownership.

Expect something to go up tonight.

[Digital Muse]

Fantastic. I'll likely play an individual cop and concentrate on her. But I can fill out the 'surroundings with various NPCs for flavor and stuff no problem

[Dio the Awesome]

If you would like to be a single cop, I'll RP the police chief as well then.

I AM VERY SORRY I AM KICKING MYSELF REPEATEDLY UNTIL THE THREAD IS UP, I SUCK AT DEADLINES!!!

HERE IS THE INTRO! FEEL FREE TO ESTABLISH YOU CHARACTER.

Then I will call you in for a briefing, and the plot will get rolling.

Oh, and, give me a profile. ^.^
